I bought Ford Flex 2011 Ecobost 3 days ago. My Experience with Cowles Ford in woodbridge VA is terrible!!! They deceitfully sold to me a car that I did not see!
I suggest that you don't buy a car that you did not see! When I complained that the car that they sold to me is not what I have expected...they said they will find me a different car. They found a "DEMO" car that has 6000 miles on it ...Demo means used car!!! Right?
They sold it to me on a MSRP price....they wanted me to exchange my brand new car to a used demo car and the most ridiculous thing that they said because the demo car comes with a little more option ..... I need to pay $5000.00 more!!! Selling a used car on MSRP price is NOT acceptable at all! And trying to Rob your customer is even more NOT acceptable in any angle!
I just financed with them a brand new car for $60,000.00 and they wanted me to pay more for a demo car!!!
I got tired arguing and going back & forth...I just told them that I will just keep my brand new unwanted car....I wanted a bucket seats in the 2nd row because I drive 4 children to school everyday and they are in car seat! They gave me a car with a bench seat!!!! I clarified it with the Sales man and he said he did not remember me saying that I need a bucket seat car.....I am so mad!!! Why will I forget the very reason of me to buy a new car!
I need a car that is convenient and has an interior of a minivan that I don't have to fold the middle chair back & forth!

Don't buy Flex, I got a brand new one 3 days ago...I'm driving at the middle of no where the navigation system & sync stopped. I thought its the signal but when I got in the belt way and arrived home it never came back.
My husband called sync support, they tried to tell him how to fix it but apparently they have a problem on it that they can't figure out...Don't waste your money.
I paid $49,000 for mine fully loaded and the total amount I financed is $60,000.00....it's a big waste.
3 days old, its giving me problem already...I don't know what will happen next. Try other options.....if you have a big family try mini vans.

Wow that sux. Too bad, got 23K miles on mine so far and not a single problem. The sync can be repaired easily enough though, the Sync in my Fusion locked once, and pulling the fuse fixed it, and it hasn't acted up since.. I found the Flex to be a great car, plenty of room and good comfortable ride, and it isnt an ugly minivan.

Just bought a 1-year old used 2011 Limited AWD with ecoboost, 12,000 miles, navigation, two-tone roof and roof rack. Edmunds TMV $37.5K and KBB is 35.5K and I paid $34K. Clean carfax 1-owner, passed a third party inspection. So it seems like either Edmunds TMV is way off base or I got a great deal?

Go for it. That is what I paid for my SEL EB. That is a sweet deal. One thing to do though, check it for hail damage, otherwise it should be fine! Sticker on that is what, 48K?

Thanks for the reply.
Sticker price is $48290 + $770 (delivery)

We feel we got a great deal on the price of our Ford Flex, it is the SEL with almost all of the extras of the Limited edition except for 3 things. The MSRP was $37,595 we got it for $6000 off plus 0% financing. This one on the lot had all the mfgs. money placed into it.
#210 of 211 What are people paying for high optioned Flex's

I get the sense that Ford is moving a heck of a lot more Explorers than Flex's. But we took a look at a loaded Flex at the dealer and we really like it. And its got a sticker of 51,550 (including destination etc). ( FLEX limited, AWD. 303A. Vista Roof. Trailer. Captains Chair. Roof Rack/silver paint, NJ).
So my question is with a car that surely seems like it would take a long time to sell, what kind of a price should I expect to buy this car for?
Thanks - And, Wow over a year since the last Flex purchase question?

You can get a feel for what they are going for using Truecar.com. There are even dealers that will be listed with coupons to lock in a price.
